[Red Mansions] The Road to Empress Dowager

When Jin Shiyue learned of these situations, the marriage of his son and nephew had to be delayed, so he asked his wife to visit each house to inquire about the news.

However, Jin Haochang was summoned by the old sage one day. It turned out that the Empress Dowager Liu came to the old sage to do work after seeing the hint to the queen, but the empress did not respond for a long time.

Although the son-in-law does not hold military power, Gaozong actually broke many rules when he was in court for more than [-] years.There is such an older young man in front of him, and he has an unmarried daughter, so he intends to give him grace.Jin Haochang could only answer honestly that he was not engaged yet. The old sage was really happy and said: "The emperor is really negligent. He only tells the horse to run, not to graze the grass. He ordered you to do this and that, but he didn't even have a marriage. Show you."

Jin Haochang's face turned red and then pale, afraid that the old sage would impulsively propose marriage to him and Princess Xiao, he hurriedly said: "My minister thanked the Supreme Emperor for his concern, but, my minister... I already have a sweetheart..."

The old sage said, "What? Which family's daughter is it?"

How do I know which daughter it is?My aunt is still looking for it!He racked his brains, only Xichun had a little impression at this time, he thought about it and weighed it, thinking that it was better than Princess Xiao, so he said: "My minister... I have heard..."

Jin Haochang thought about it again, if the old saint felt that he looked down on his daughter, but instead fell in love with Xichun, he would be unhappy in his heart.And back then Jia Jing was somewhat tainted with Prince Yizhong, if Jia Daishan hadn't been the old sage's confidant, the Ningguo Mansion might have taken it back long ago.Jin Hao advocated as the prince's son of Xining County, but the old calendars of the court were clear.

Jin Haochang said: "I am afraid that the old sage will blame me, so I dare not speak."

The old sage was indeed a little unhappy in his heart now, even if he didn't love the princess very much, his face would always be dull if his daughter couldn't get married.This is the responsibility of being a father, that is, Jia She in the original book, seeing that no one cares about her after the [-]th day of Spring Festival, she still wants to marry her to Sun Shaozu.

The old sage insisted that he speak, Jin Haochang knelt down, and had no choice but to say: "My minister... I heard... the old sage's... Princess Hedechang, both talented and beautiful, virtuous and virtuous, is a model of a royal princess... very ... admiration."

Jin Haochang thought to himself: Princess Hede is better than Princess Hexiao. Although she is not stunning, she still looks elegant and dignified.

When the old sage proposed to Jin Hao to marry Princess Hede, everyone was a little confused. When Empress Dowager Liu learned about it, her eyes darkened and she passed out, and Princess Hexiao also fell ill from anger.

Tu Yuanyi smiled wryly, why does his father always like to marry people, he only hopes that Princess Hede will become the concubine, and don't live like Yang.

The Empress Dowager Zhou was very happy, no matter what, Princess Hede was recorded under her name, and after marrying Hede, her Zhou family also gained a powerful in-law.And Jin Hao advocated that he was young, handsome and talented, so he would not humiliate the princess.

……

At both ends of the story, Fairy Jing Huan has Yang Shi and Jia Yuanchun by her side, and her recovery speed is not the same as before.

By this year, she had fully recovered from her injuries, and her skills had recovered to half. Because she was concerned about the grand layout of the lower realm, she made up her mind to leave the mountain ahead of schedule.Otherwise, it will take a few years for her to fully recover, and I'm afraid it will be even more difficult to do so.

Therefore, Jing Huan recruited Yang Shi and Jia Yuanchun. Yang Shi was a grieving ghost and had no body, but Jia Yuanchun had recovered the body of a little fairy, but this little fairy also fell into a magic barrier.

When Yang Shi and Jia Yuanchun heard that Fairy Jing Huan was finally going to carry out a revenge plan for them, there was a murderous look in their eyes.

……

On April day in the world, the emperor and empress went to Lishan Palace for vacation.

Since Xing Xiuyan gave birth to a child, she has focused on the child and lost the wonderful life that a 17-year-old woman should have.

This time, she also invited the nobles of the high society in Kyoto, saying that she would hold a women's horse race.And Tie Zhu, Da Zhu, and Yuan Yuan were all unscrupulously thrown to the care of "super daddy" Tu Yuan Yi Wang.

It's normal for Tu Yuanyi to review the memorials and take care of the children at the same time.

Several sworn sisters have a pony, and of course it was their horse that entered the race for the first time.

They have also given birth to their children, and the center of their lives has been centered around their children recently, so they should be stealing half a day's leisure.

Many maids and maids were on the horse farm, looking at the five small Arabian horses in novelty. Now that two years have passed, the small horses can already be ridden.To get a pony, sworn sisters are naturally indispensable, but thinking that Yingchun is also the daughter of Mrs. Xing in name, and she was very close before, so I gave her one. The Feng family is a general, which is another kind of grace.

It's just that among these sisters, only the queen can ride a horse, while Fu, Hui, and Ying can only send female equestrians to play, and Mrs. Nie represents Daiyu.

The queen was dressed in a red equestrian outfit, riding on a golden Arabian horse, looking forward to flying, with a heroic posture, which made the ladies present feel enthusiastic.

Several young concubines thought that they must also ask their prince to raise a pony for them.

The empress's runway was in the middle, and Mrs. Nie was beside her, she said with a smile: "Empress, others will let you, but my wife will not be polite!"

Xing Xiuyan smiled and said: "Why is Madam being polite? If Madam wins Bengong, I will fulfill Madam's wish. If Madam wins, it will be the same. How about it?"

Madam Nie laughed: "I'm determined to do what I want, but I dare not ask you."

Xing Xiuyan said to the "replacement drivers" riders: "You don't have to let me, you are representing your masters, and you want to win honor for them."

Several female equestrians said yes, they also feel that they have no regrets in this life to be able to compete with the queen and Mrs. Dingzhonghou.

The race started. Under the watchful eyes of many invited relatives, friends and ladies, several Arabian ponies rushed forward under the control of the riders at the command of the starter.

The female horse slave is naturally a good player, Mrs. Dingzhong Hou is very skilled in martial arts, and her riding skills are not weak, but the empress is not weak at all.

In the arena, the atmosphere suddenly became lively, Shi Hui even pulled Daiyu and said: "I must learn to ride a horse, next time I will go on the field by myself."

Daiyu smiled and said, "Brother is only three months old now, are you free?"

Shi Hui had just given birth three months ago, if it wasn't for the queen's invitation, she would not be fit to go out, but her husband's family strongly urged her to come.

Shi Hui sighed: "I really don't know how the Empress has three children, one is enough for my headache."

But Daiyu saw that she was sprinting in the end, she pulled the sighing Shi Hui to watch the field, everyone's hearts rose to the top of their voices.

Seeing that Xing Xiuyan had crossed the finish line first by half a horse shorter than Mrs. Nie, cheers erupted from the field.

Xing Xiuyan got off the horse, and the maids sprinkled the petals in time. Who made it impossible to buy fireworks in ancient times? Fortunately, Daiyu is not in the mood to sing Tibetan flowers now.

Xing Xiuyan patted Ah Jin who had grown up in two years, praised him, and gave him another candy.

Mrs. Nie also came up to congratulate her. Xing Xiuyan smiled and said, "Madam, you must remember the agreement. I haven't thought of any request yet. I will tell Madam when I think of it."

Madam Nie said with a smile, "How dare you owe the empress a debt!"

After the competition, the queen made a short speech on the high platform that was built, announcing the establishment of the "Great Zhou Royal Women's Equestrian Association", and personally served as the president of the association.

And Mrs. Nie, Lin Daiyu, Su Fuer, Shi Hui, and Jia Yingchun actually became the first batch of members. The first batch of members jointly elected Mrs. Nie as the vice president, and Su Fuer was the secretary general.

This association will also recruit members from outside, but members also have standards. There are certain requirements for women's talents, learning and conduct, and they have no record of violating the criminal law. Outstanding women can be inducted into the Jockey Club.

The Jockey Club's loyalty purpose is of course: patriotism, charity, benevolence, friendship, mutual assistance, and bravery.

Members of the Women's Jockey Club have to pay "membership fees" to maintain the daily operation of the organization.

Competitions with the theme of "Patriotism and Charity" are held throughout the year. Members let their horses participate, and they can end themselves or hire female riders to end.

The club will sell tickets for the races to the public. 90.00% of the income of the Jockey Club will be donated to charity and patriotic causes, and [-]% will be used for the maintenance and development of the Jockey Club. The accounts will be transparently announced every month.

The president of the Jockey Club is elected by all members. Each president has a term of three years and can be re-elected for a maximum of two terms. When there are more than 50 members, a central committee must be established and a standing committee member must be elected.

The ladies and gentlemen who were invited were stunned when they heard this, and there were still many things that they did not understand.

The queen also asked her ladies-in-waiting to explain to them one by one.

Everyone also gradually understands that it is an activity to do good deeds and make money, but the money is not earned by oneself, but by organizing charitable activities.For example: building civilian schools, improving the living environment in slums, taking in orphans, supporting the construction of the imperial court, supporting the imperial court in war, food, grass and logistics, etc.

This is a top-level social occasion and an occasion to win fame, but not all women can join, must have a good reputation or achievements, and be willing to contribute to patriotic and charitable causes.

Many women present were of course excited to try it out, and several young concubines made up their minds to join this horse club.

After the competition, it is of course impossible for the palace to accommodate so many foreign imperial orders overnight, and they still have to rush back to the capital without going into details.

But said that the queen left a few close sisters to play in the palace for a few days.The queen is headstrong, fishing today and enjoying the flowers tomorrow. Anyway, she wants to free herself from the life of an old lady for a few days, so the sisters can only sacrifice their lives to accompany the gentleman.

This day the Empress held a banquet in the palace garden, this banquet was also unique, a stove was set up in the garden and fired on the spot.

According to her enthusiastic explanation with her sisters, she finally found an imperial chef who is good at making fugu, and got a few good fish to share with others, but this thing is not usually in the imperial meal list.

After giving birth, the queen is extremely greedy for food. She used to be afraid of "a concubine who rides the world of mortals and laughs", but now she privately asks Tu Yuanyi to find someone to buy it.

Stewed, stewed, baked and other cooking methods were used one after another, and the eyes of all the girls were shining, which was much more refreshing than roasting venison in the garden at home.

Just after a puffer fish feast, the girls went to visit the peony garden with the queen. Seeing the red, yellow, pink, and purple in the flower garden competing to bloom, the girls proposed to have a "Peony Club" poetry competition.

The queen was full of interest, and led the girls to the pavilion, and asked the servants to bring the four treasures of the study.

When the girls were contemplating themselves and writing, they suddenly saw two fairies flying in from the garden wall of the palace, and they saw that their bodies were emitting golden light and filled with the air of clouds and mist.

The girls were shocked, the queen also looked at the two of them, but Lin Daiyu suddenly said in surprise: "Cousin Yuanchun!"

All the women present knew that Jia Yuanchun had died as early as last year, and they couldn't help being shocked.But Daiyu took a closer look, and saw that Jia Yuanchun was three points more beautiful than when she had seen it before, and she looked like she was in the Mood for Love in her 20s.

But seeing the fairy who was two points more beautiful than Jia Yuanchun smiled and said: "Wuliang Tianzun, today I am here to pick up Queen Xing and Lin Daiyu to ascend in the daytime."

Su Fu'er, Shi Hui, Yingchun, Xiangyun, Baochai, Xichun, and Wang Xifeng's mother and daughter were all shocked and thought to themselves: Are there really gods in the world?The Queen and Sister Lin (sister) have ascended to the ascension, are they about to die?Their husband and wife are loving, and they just had a child, how could they separate their flesh and blood for the sake of becoming an immortal?

Jia Yuanchun also had a gentle smile on his face, and said to Lin Daiyu: "Cousin Lin, my aunt has come to help you become a fairy. Your fate is not small. You see that my cousin has become a fairy. Come with us."

Jing Huan said to Xing Xiuyan again: "Queen of the world, your merits and virtues have been accomplished, and you are about to ascend in the daytime. My relatives are here to take you to immortality, and follow me!"

Xing Xiuyan has already guessed who the other party is, a woman with such magic power, Jia Yuanchun will follow after her death, who else can she have.

But it would be good for all the women present not to be persecuted by this monster. She smiled lightly and said: "I am very honored to have this fairy fate. I have fulfilled my wish to become a fairy, and the fairy came to cross my palace. Gong also should take a bath and change clothes, so as not to be disrespectful to the immortal way. Please wait a moment, fairy!"

The women looked at the Queen in horror, and Jing Huan thought to himself: The monks have been searching together without a trace, presumably their future arrangements will be chaotic, which is why Xing Xiuyan got the phoenix's life.If Xing Xiuyan can be removed, first to fulfill the wish of the second daughter to help her recover, and second, to remove this key piece that hinders her, then she can win this game.

Jing Huan is of course best at deceiving people. From the time when she deceived little fairies and absorbed their cultivation, to defrauding a monk for her own use, even before she became a "human immortal" Practicing the technique of harvesting and nourishing to get a man's Yuan Yang, in addition to sex/seduction, naturally one also has to coax a man to voluntarily.

Shi Hui couldn't help but said: "Empress, if you become a fairy, what will the princes and princesses do?"

On the one hand, Xiao Mi pretended to be slightly reluctant in line with common sense, and pretended to see through the world, saying profoundly: "The moon has waxes and wanes, and people have gatherings and departures. Why come and go, why force it?"

Jing Huan was overjoyed, and said: "The empress is very understanding, and she really has a lot of celestial fate."

"Two fairies, please stay here for a while." After saying that, Xing Xiuyan saluted her and told all the women present to leave first. Lin Daiyu looked at Xing Xiuyan, but Xing Xiuyan held her hand and said with a smile: "You and I The sisters swore a vow, and today they are going to fly on the same day, as a result of the fate, the younger sister also needs to take a good bath and change clothes."

While talking, Xing Xiuyan quickly wrote on Lin Daiyu's hand: "Demon, run quickly".

Lin Daiyu was horrified, but she was so smart that she instantly understood the elder sister's intentions. She was using a strategy of delaying the attack, and she was also afraid that the twin demons would harm the lives of all the sisters present.

Lin Daiyu looked at the elder sister's calm smile, she also calmed down, and sighed: "Since I have a fairy fate, I am afraid that I will have a shallow relationship with my husband in this life, and the destiny cannot be violated."

So, he also called the sisters to leave the imperial garden. Just after leaving the garden, Xiangyun couldn't bear to part with Daiyu, and took her hand and burst into tears: "Sister Lin is going to become a fairy, I won't see my sister again ?”

Lin Daiyu winked at her, but the upright Xiangyun didn't know what it meant, Lin Daiyu said, "You don't have to miss me."

Lin Daiyu was afraid to be heard by Jing Huan and others, so she dared not tell the truth, and then wrote those three words on Xiangyun's hand, Xiangyun couldn't help gasping.

After leaving the garden arch, Xing Xiuyan wanted the girls to stay away, but none of the girls dared to walk in front of the queen, and the corridor away from here was a bit long, Xing Xiuyan only had a calm face.

The garden was suddenly empty, and Jing Huan felt that the atmosphere was weird. After all, he had experience in the world, and shouted: "No! It's a trick!"

So Jing Huan and Jia Yuanchun chased out of the garden.The imperial garden is full of female relatives at this time, and there are Gongshengjun and Jinyiwei guards outside, who would have thought that someone could break in?People can't break in.

Therefore, there are only eunuchs and maids in the vicinity, and there are no guards.

Xing Xiuyan walked along with all the girls, Lin Daiyu and Xiangyun kept urging, they had already written those three characters in everyone's hands.

The original surprise and reluctance of the girls turned into fear, and then they thought that Jia Yuanchun was dead, and she was not very decent before she was born, so it might not be a good thing to appear here.

Suddenly came to a small hall near the palace garden, and saw the inscription "White Tiger Hall"

Xing Xiuyan noticed that Jing Huan and Jing Huan were chasing them, and immediately led them into the "White Tiger Palace". Just as the eunuch and maid closed the palace door, Jing Huan called out from outside the door: "I have come to ferry the Queen to become a fairy with good intentions. What do you mean?"

The white tiger is one of the four guardian beasts in ancient times. There is a statue of the white tiger engraved on the gate of the temple, and there is still some suppression of the evil spirits and evil thoughts of the police.

Xing Xiuyan is actually just taking a gamble, there is no better choice, hoping that gods and ghosts like Jing Huan will be afraid of the white tiger beast.

The White Tiger Hall in the palace was originally a place for martial arts training, and there were many weapons on display. Xing Xiuyan immediately took out a sword, and asked the girls to pick out weapons to protect themselves.

Xing Xiuyan said: "Xiangu wait a moment, I'm a little tired, let's rest in the hall for a while."

Jing Huan said: "Is this the Queen's way of hospitality?"

Seeing that she didn't barge in, Xing Xiuyan thought to herself: Could it be that she is really afraid?

If this is the case, Tu Yuanyi should know the difference after a short delay.

As long as he sees Jing Huan and Jia Yuanchun, he will know that they are not friends. If Jin Yiwei and Gongsheng Army Shenji Battalion work together to destroy Jing Huan and Jia Yuanchun, he should be able to escape.

Xing Xiuyan said: "I'm sorry for treating Xiangu slowly, but I and the sisters really can't move anymore. Why don't Xiangu choose an auspicious time tomorrow to come to this palace and sister Lin?"

Jing Huan sneered: "Cheng Xian is a joke? Come out quickly!"

Jia Yuanchun had already endured very hard, seeing Xing Xiuyan, she wished she could pounce on her and tear her apart.Empress Yang should be the same, but she is a ghost, and the sun is not easy to come out.

Jia Yuanchun said: "Fairy, she is playing tricks on us, she is forcing us to do something."

If she doesn't cheat, she will alarm others, and Jing Huanyuan doesn't want to waste her mana, she has only recovered half of her mana now.

Jing Huan approached the gate of the White Tiger Palace, but the white tiger's appearance exuded righteousness, making her dizzy.Originally, Jia Yuanchun didn't cultivate in an evil way, but she was restrained more lightly. She cast a wave of magic power and struck at the gate with the appearance of the white tiger.

After all, it was just a wood carving, not a magic weapon blessed by a spell. Jia Yuanchun's full power hit the door naturally.

Jia Yuanchun broke in, but Jing Huan was still waiting outside the hall.

As soon as Jia Yuanchun entered the hall, he saw many pictures of white tigers and beasts engraved on the beams and pillars in the hall, and there was a large one in the center of the hall.

Xing Xiuyan stood in front of the girls with a sword in his hand, but seeing that the police did not come into the hall, he felt a bit more at ease.

Jia Yuanchun couldn't help sneering: "Xing Xiuyan, you don't want to eat fine wine when you toast."

Although Xing Xiuyan was worried, she still had her characteristic indifferent smile on her face, and the words on her mouth were very hurtful.

"I am the queen of the Great Zhou Dynasty. What are you, Jia Yuanchun? You are not qualified to toast to me, let alone fined!"

Jia Yuanchun looked at her resentfully, and cursed: "Bitch, you ruined my life, I was supposed to be the queen!"

Jia Yuanchun's face took off the disguise, and he had the hideous look of a resentful woman and a ghost, and the women couldn't help being shocked when they saw it.

Lin Daiyu originally had deep sympathy for her cousin's life, but now listening to her words and looking at her expression, she thought that she had already gone crazy.

Lin Daiyu said: "Cousin Yuanchun, what you said is really unreasonable. The saint and the eldest sister are in love with each other, what does it have to do with you?"

Jia Yuanchun glared at Lin Daiyu viciously, and said, "You bitch also has a share! Did you forget what I told you that day? You are my cousin in this life, but how did you treat me?! You have the heart Seeing that I am lonely and old in the palace, I don’t want to help me sincerely.”

Xing Xiuyan found out that the palace was really suppressing the demon law, and when he was obviously very nervous, he couldn't help holding his sword to his chest after hearing Jia Yuanchun's bitter words, and said with a faint smile: "Second sister, how can you count as helping me? You don't have a man Let Second Sister find you a man to sleep with you? Second Sister is a bustard in a brothel! I can tell you responsibly that Second Sister has never studied this major, so she can’t do it! Speaking of which, if you want to prostitute the emperor, you prostitute the emperor? Have you considered the emperor’s feelings? Men and women love each other, and if one party is not willing, that is rape. If you want to rape the emperor, haha, aren’t you Are you kidding?"

All those present were married women, er, except Xichun and Qiaojie.Everyone saw that the queen was still playing hooligans at this time, and couldn't help sweating profusely, but they despised Jia Yuanchun even more.Jia Yingchun wished that she wasn't her elder sister of the same clan, but Jia Yingchun had a honest temperament and couldn't speak harsh words.

Jia Yuanchun scolded: "Bitch! You've ruined my life, and you still have to be quick with your tongue! I'm going to tear you to pieces!"

Xing Xiu got angry at the cigarette holder, but she just thought that when people are irrational, they will have more flaws, but she is smiling bitterly in her heart, saying that she is not afraid at all is a lie, but she knows that it is useless to shrink back, because there is no way out.

She secretly begged that Tu Yuanyi would bring someone here soon.She didn't believe that these people were invincible in magic power, otherwise the monks and monks would not have been captured and died in her hands.

Xing Xiuyan drew his sword, and saw Jia Yuanchun pounce on him, and she was probably arrogant because she relied on her fairy body, so she opened the palace without defense, Xing Xiuyan saw it and stabbed it quickly with her sword.

She remembered the essence of swordsmanship taught by Tu Yuanyi: flexible, direct, and ruthless.Practicing all the tricks is for the sake of no tricks, but you can use any angle and any change of attack freely and willfully.

She has nowhere to escape, so she might as well face it openly.

Jia Yuanchun didn't expect that Xing Xiuyan was not a weak woman, and she possessed the aura of a real phoenix, so this sword was really not weak, so she quickly dodged it.

Seeing that she wanted to avoid her, Xing Xiuyan became more calm, thinking that in "The Legend of the Ancient Sword", the prince Changqin could still be cheated by a human swordsmith. No one knows what it is!
